[Berman] The Eagles are taking Texas S Andrew Mukuba

26 comments
  1. Lead the SEC in interceptions last season with 5 (I guess he technically tied for the lead, but still)

  2. I like this pick. Seen him play. He’s small but physical as hell.

    He’s gonna be a good fit I think

  3. some non-eagles fan in the r/nfl thread called him “QB killer Mukuba” so I got high hopes

  4. As a Michigan fan, he was all over the field when he played us. Smart guy who will probably thrive in Fangio’s system.

    People are gonna knock on the “undersized” part but remember what happened the last time we took a hard hitting, undersized safety in the second round?

  5. As a Texas fan I am pumped for this pick. To me he seemed like the glue of the Texas secondary. I think he brings a lot of the same attributes that CJGJ has without the baggage.
    I was thinking 3rd round for him but if they like him enough to take him in the second round I trust the front office.

  6. Love this pick. Nose for the football & has amazing instincts. He’s on the smaller side but that doesn’t concern me as much in today’s league. He was one of the safeties I wanted most out of this draft. Welcome to Philly!

  7. I thought Winston or Watts for sure. At least the right position.

    I don’t think he came for a visit and not the highest tester. Maybe those narratives was a Howie ploy.

  8. This is what Fangio wants.

    Him and Coop both are Nickel Safety Hybrids.

    Means that we can have perfectly balanced formations since either could drop back into safety/Nickel.

    While he may be a bit worse than Watts that added versatility in Fangio’s hands is massive. Going to be a nightmare for opposing QBs to read.

  9. Hopefully this can end the naivety of the Sydney Brown fan club around here. Howie and Fangio have now made it clear Brown ain’t it with this pick.
